Molly on the Shore is a composition of Percy Aldridge Grainger, typically played by a wind orchestra. It is a delightful Irish Reel that takes us through a variety of keys and textures, giving each section of the band long stretches of thematic and countermelodic material.

It is also played on occasion by orchestras, and was arranged for violin and piano by Fritz Kreisler.
